If you’re following the U.S. presidential campaign, you might not be paying much attention to how the various candidates stand, sit, gesticulate, walk, and move. Perhaps you should. The way the presidential candidates use their bodies can give you a fascinating and useful education in how to use — and not use — your own body.

Invite back and posture expert Esther Gokhale (pronounced Go-clay) to talk with your audience about what can be learned from people’s posture.

Esther reveals:

• Which presidential candidate’s posture could put him or her at risk for neck issues.

• How one presidential candidate may develop hip pain because of how he or she walks, and another may develop lower back pain because of how he or she stands.

• How all the people around you can be your training ground for healthy postural habits.

CREDENTIALS: Esther Gokhale, L.Ac. studied biochemistry at Harvard and Princeton, and acupuncture at San Francisco School of Oriental Medicine. In excruciating pain and facing a second back surgery, Esther decided to find a better way. She studied posture among cultures with little back pain and subsequently developed the Gokhale MethodSM. Her book 8 STEPS TO A PAIN-FREE BACK (Pendo Press, 2008) was called “the greatest contribution ever made to non-surgical back pain treatment” by Dr. Helen Barkan, a Mayo Clinic neurologist, and is the first in Esther’s series Remember When It Didn’t Hurt.
